Tactical Space Research

Abstract

This project researches and evaluates technologies for space-based and high altitude applications for Army tactical ground forces. Applied research efforts include the design and development of sensors and electronic components, communications, signal and information processing, target acquisition, position/navigation, and threat warning within space and high altitude environments. The applied research and technology evaluations conducted under this Project leverage other Department of Defense (DoD) space science and technology applications to support Army space force enhancement and cooperative satellite payload development. Work in this project complements and is fully coordinated with Program Element (PE) 0603006A (Space Applications Technology). The cited work is consistent with the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering science and technology priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. Work in this project is performed by the Army Space and Missile Defense Command/Army Forces Strategic Command (SMDC/ARSTRAT) in Huntsville, AL.
